Plum is a beautiful woman, especially among country women. Her unusual lies in the cultural atmosphere that is rare in her temperament. Such a beautiful country woman, you may not think that one day, she will become a psychopath.

After becoming a madman, Meizi is no longer as gentle and delicate as before, and she has become full of foul language. Almost every once in a while, Meizi would return to her mother's house from her in-laws' house, two or three miles away from the village, and when she met people in her mother's village, she could not smile. People saw that Plum was pale, her eyes were sluggish, and her mouth kept muttering: "Dog x raised, dog x raised, bad breed... Don't die..."

Seeing Meizi's look like this, people who were familiar with her did not dare to rush to say hello. Because Meizi saw these people, it was as if these people did not exist. Plum lives in her own world, and only remembers the way back to her mother's house, which is strange.

Although she talked crazy all day, the way back to her mother's house always had to remember it perfectly. Every time she returned to her mother's house with a "insult", her sister-in-law was enthusiastic about entertaining her and treating her as a normal person. Seeing that there was a little gray star on her body, the sister-in-law slapped it off for her. Brought half a basin of water and let her wash it, and her sister-in-law was busy cooking for her. The sister-in-law was worried that she would be left out in the cold at her in-laws' house, and it was inevitable that she would be hungry and full, and every time she came back, she always thought of improving her food.

When Meizi returned this time, the eldest sister-in-law beat her two eggs that she was not willing to sell. The eldest sister-in-law smiled and brought two poached eggs to Meizi and said, "Plum, hurry, eat it while it is hot." "

Meizi rolled her eyes, looked at the sister-in-law, and said: "You are not a good thing, you are a good person, you are all bad people, bad people..." The sister-in-law is embarrassed, not with her general knowledge, or good words to persuade her: "Meizi, I am angry, angry, you two girls, who takes care of you!" "

"Yes, yes! Good girl, good girl! Plum clapped her hands and laughed happily.

The eldest sister-in-law also laughed and advised her, "Yes, Plum, for the girl, you should also eat more, come..." Under the coaxing of the sister-in-law, Meizi took up the bowl, but still ate very gently.

The curious old lady next door came to gossip, and Meizi's sister-in-law cried out for her: "You don't know, her fifth grandmother, Meizi's two daughters are so handsome!" Everyone is apricot-eyed cherry with small mouths and small faces pink and white, which makes people feel painful; alas, it is a pity that plums have this disease..."

Under the inquiry of the fifth grandmother, people understood meizi's illness. It turned out that when Meizi married into the family of a person surnamed Cai in the village, her man had a young friend. Once, his man brought nao to the house and was caught by The Plum. Meizi cried and made trouble, did not forgive, and was beaten up by her man. After this trouble, her man later relented slightly. But after two years, his old illness recurred, and he found a younger friend, and in the daytime, in front of plums, the two were undisguisedly greasy...

When the fifth grandmother heard this, she was furious: "Then why don't you mother's family persuade Meizi to leave with such a beastly man?" "

"Grandma Five, at first I thought the same thing, not far away, don't know this situation, wait until we get the letter, it's too late," Meizi sister-in-law said, "Meizi is more fierce this time, she is looking for death and life, but her man does not eat this set, in a breath, with a rolling pin on the back of her head a few times, she fainted, waited to be sent to the hospital, checked for concussion, after ten days to wake up, wake up and become like this." "

"You don't sue her for this man, and you're angry for her?"

"Don't mention, Grandma Five, when the family of five went to find Old Cai, he ran away early." I heard that before running, I took another woman, it seems that I am not ready to come back, the two girls in the family, this beast does not care, the family is now only when he dies. "

"Oh, what iniquity!" Grandma Five sighed.

Just a year after the fifth grandmother's sigh, Meizi had another accident. One night in the middle of the night, it was still a month's night, when Meizi's two daughters were asleep, she carried a bucket and went to the well in the village to fetch water, unexpectedly, when she reached the edge of the well, she did not crouch down, slipped under her feet, and fell into the well more than two meters deep.

It was just after dawn, and when the first villager to fetch water found out, the plum had already drifted in the well. When her two daughters heard the news, they lay on the edge of the well, dragged by the villagers to death, crying and tearing their hearts and lungs...
